Maintenance - LAVAZZA Minu User Manual

Descaling
Descale your machine every 3-4 months (more frequently for areas with hard
water or high machine usage i.e. more than 2 coffees per day).
1. Fill the tank with an appropriate descaling solution and top up to the max line
with fresh cold water.
2. Place a cup under the dispensing spout.
3. Check there is no capsule in the capsule drawer , then draw two cups (approx
150ml each) of water through the coffee spout.
4. Leave the machine for 15-20 minutes.
5. After this period return to the machine and switch back on.
6. Continue to run water from the machine until the tank is empty.
7. Remove the tank, rinse, refill and replace.
8. And finally, to complete the process run a full tank of water through the
machine to remove any residue of the descaling solution.
9. Descaling is now complete.
